Featured Project: Marikina Polytechnic College – Campus ICT & Network Infrastructure Upgrade
Project Overview
Marikina Polytechnic College embarked on a major infrastructure upgrade to strengthen its digital foundation and support the growing demands of technology-driven education. With increasing reliance on online platforms, digital classrooms, and campus-wide connectivity, the institution required a robust, secure, and scalable ICT infrastructure.
AVLS was engaged to deliver a campus-grade network and structured cabling solution, designed to improve performance, reliability, and long-term readiness for future expansion.
The Challenge
As an academic institution serving a large student population, Marikina Polytechnic College needed an ICT environment that could:
- Support high volumes of simultaneous users
- Provide stable and fast connectivity across campus facilities
- Protect institutional data and systems from cyber threats
- Ensure continuous operation despite power interruptions
- Maintain organized, standards-compliant cabling infrastructure
The challenge was to modernize the campus network while ensuring reliability, security, and scalability—without disrupting daily academic operations.
The AVLS Solution
AVLS delivered a comprehensive ICT and network infrastructure upgrade, covering core systems, security, power protection, and structured cabling.
Campus Network Core & Distribution
A high-capacity switching and routing environment was deployed to form the backbone of the campus network. This allows efficient handling of data traffic across academic buildings, offices, and shared facilities, ensuring consistent connectivity for learning and administrative systems.
Network Security & Protection
A centralized security gateway was implemented to safeguard the campus network. This provides traffic inspection, threat prevention, and access control—helping protect students, faculty, and institutional data from digital risks.
Power Protection & System Reliability
Uninterruptible power systems and proper equipment enclosures were installed to protect critical network components. This minimizes downtime, safeguards hardware, and ensures continued operation during power fluctuations or outages.
Structured Cabling & Fiber Infrastructure
AVLS implemented a structured cabling system using industry-standard copper and fiber components. This ensures clean signal transmission, organized pathways, and long-term maintainability across classrooms, offices, and network rooms.
Professional Integration & Commissioning
The project included complete engineering services—covering supply, installation, configuration, testing, and commissioning. All systems were validated to ensure stable operation and readiness for daily academic use.
The Outcome
Marikina Polytechnic College now operates with a modern, secure, and high-performance campus ICT infrastructure that delivers:
- Faster and more reliable network connectivity
- Improved support for digital learning platforms and online resources
- Stronger cybersecurity and system protection
- Reduced downtime through power backup and system redundancy
